Relative path file

Benalish · 04-15-23, 07:03 AM

Hello. In the folder where the .lua, .xml and .toc files are present, there is a subfolder called "media" where the "thumb.blp" file is present. What is the right syntax to load this file? I tried

"media\\thumb"

"\\media\\thumb"

"..\\media\\thumb"

but none of them work. Do I have to write the whole path?

Code:

"Inteface\\AddOns\\Your-Addon-Folder\\Media\\Thumb"

or create a variable for the textures path

Code:

local TexturePath = "Inteface\\AddOns\\Your-Addon-Folder\\Media\\"

and use

Code:

thisTexture:SetTexture(TexturePath .. "Thumb")
